The Virtual Warehouse (magazzinovirtuale.it)
On the basis of Unitec German there is a simple task: it is not necessary for a company to keep semi-final products or raw materials in warehouse if it knows where to obtain them and knows that it will be able to acquire them in time useful.
MagazzinoVirtuale.it is the recent launch of the German company, active throughout Europe, to introduce its integrated logistics solution, which applied to a group of companies or even an entire industrial district allows at the same time to reduce the size of the individual company's warehouse, increasing the quantity and variety of products that it can obtain at the time it expresses need. The result is a reduction in warehouse costs at the individual company level and an increase in asset availability at a quantitative and qualitative level.
The secret is to transform the warehouses of each individual business into a single warehouse through an integration, naturally virtual, based on a data transmission infrastructure.
In other words, the individual company reduces its warehouse of semi-final products, because thanks to a data transmission network it can access a much greater quantity and variety of assets from the virtual warehouse, which is nothing more than the integration of availability information coming from the locations of other companies participating in the plan.
The comprehensive solution comprises three diverse elements: the warehouses of the individual companies, the IT and data transmission infrastructure and the centralized administration of the logistics of the group of companies. Unitec acts as administrator of logistics and IT infrastructure. Individual companies continue to manage their smaller, less expensive warehouse by sending information about their own availability to Unitec. The system should work in Italian industrial districts, as SMEs in a district, in addition to being physically many neighbors, have warehouse constitutions and similar technologies. In fact, the first applications that occurred were not implemented between hospital structures belonging to the same city, in situations, therefore, in which geographical proximity, similar warehouse constitutions and technological levels of the same type re-existed. Individual companies can contact Unitec directly and gradually experience the benefits of the solution at the MagazzinoVirtuale, NetSourcing Centers.
Usually MagazziniVirtuali are activated at the initiative of district leaders or local business associations.
